We want all children at Coxhoe Primary School to get the most out of their education, and attending school regularly is an important part of your child’s education. We are here to support you if there are barriers which prevent your child consistently accessing school. Having a good education will help to give your child the best possible start in life. Poor school attendance means that your child misses key aspects of their sequence of learning and it can also impact on their social needs and development. Promoting and supporting good attendance at school is essential to learning and attainment.
Our attendance lead is Miss Armstrong with the support of Mrs Taylor, Miss Topping and Miss Turner. If you have any concerns regarding your child's attendance, please get in touch with Miss Armstrong either via the school email or via the office. We are always here to help.
